Fight Fans: Mayweather vs Mcgregor

[Gen]

The picture of all savy investors. No wonder the knobhead needs the money.

Oh he doesn't need money..he just likes money..just because he owes the tax man money doesn't mean he doesn't have it..it just probably means he can't remember where he forgot that bag of money..

 

But yeah the way he spends what he has it won't last forever, also they do get taken for a ride by their entourage...not the smartest tools in the shed.. like most boxers..they seem to burn through it really fast..

is he riding bikes because he needs to shed some weight?

Seems his weight is a problem and that with only a few days to go... Mayweather reckons he McGregor is at least 10lbs overweight. ..

 

Aah the hype will go into overdrive now..

 

Fortunately when I wake up on Sunday it will all be over.[emoji6]

Ja nee

Groot bek McGregor will not be able to beat that

Just the GV alone is enough to bankrupt a small country

I think I read somewhere Mayweather was worth over $1.3 Billion dollars, and thats not a mistake its "Billion"!....more than some small countries, McGregor going to struggle to even scratch that surface.

 

I dont like McGregors antics, Mayweather is no saint but he has the history to prove his worth in the boxing arena, I hope he cleans up.

Yeah, McGregor's weight and Mayweather's age, ....kinda cancel each other out.. 

[CogitoErgoSum]

Either way, this "fight" is a farce

Agreed, I'm supporting the "lesser of 2 evils" purely because of McG behaviour.

 

I have this dreaded feeling that MaY is going to have his hands full With McG

Will the weight of the gloves make a difference? The way I see it, FM has won majority of his fights with 8oz so is used to them. CM usually fights with much lighter gloves(think 4oz?) so these are "a lot" heavier. Also CM's stats show his fights are often only about 5/6 rounds so swinging that heavier glove for longer might tire him out a bit. 

I am still hoping CM wins, but FM doesn't have 49-0 for no reason, he can run away from his opponent really well and make the hits when they count.

He's been sparring with much heavier gloves, that's how you train...heavy gloves in training for light hands during the fight.

[Ed-Zulu]

A problem he seems to have every now and then. Always amazes me how these top earning sport stars don't have their taxes sorted.

He has Greek blood for sure!

This fight is a complete farce in my books, but man I still just can't stop following it and I'm actually a bit bummed I'm likely to miss it as I have a running race on Sunday morning... 

 

Very disappointed in myself

Think the glove weight depends on the weight class.. the lighter the weight class the lighter the weight of the glove. .but the commission has agreed to let them fight with 8oz gloves normally with a 154lbs fight it would be 10oz..and the commission has apparently received a bit of flack for allowing the lighter gloves for this fight... but hey..

 

Suppose everyone that can is in on this cash grab.

If you have Duran Duran as your 'I support Conor' 'Notorious' ring tone, you have gone too far!

[Wannabe]

The lighter gloves also "hit harder", but that will favor both fighter and boxer (see what I did there....)

 

I see it play down like this.

Conor to start fast, hoping to land a few haymakers on Mayweather, before the latter can get into his stride.

Should the fight then go past round 5, cuts excluded, Mayweather should have the upper hand, being technically the better boxer, and used to go into the latter, or as it's called, the championship rounds.

 

But Mayweather cannot relax for a second, as Conor is an excellent counter puncher, and packs a mean left hook, which he can throw from almost any position. And with him being a southpaw, that will be his main weapon.

 

My head says Mayweather for the win, but there is always the chance that Conor will land that one punch. I just hope that he will not rely on just that one punch, 'cause if he does, he will be in for a torrid time.

 

Even though most says this is a farce, I'll be infront of the TV from 05h00 onwards on Sunday.
